Continuing her attack on ruling DMK in Tamil Nadu on second-generation mobile telephony spectrum scam, AIADMK general secretary Jayalalithaa today said that the save Raja campaign of the DMK would be counterproductive.

The campaign to save A Raja, former Union telecom minister would boomerang', Jayalalithaa told reporters at the aiport on her way to Kanayakumari.

Stating that the CBI investigation into the case was progressing on right direction, she said 'I am sure that it will reach a logical conclusion'.

Terming the 2G mobile bandwidth scam as one of the biggest in the world itself, she said the image of DMK already dented had been demolished with this scam.

To a question of her party's suportt to UPA government, she said 'I had already made my position clear on the matter'. Now it was upto how developemnt takes place, she said.

Jayalalithaa said DMK government tried very hard in the last five years to pin her down. But, they could not find any wrong doing on my part as chief minister and also not able to foist any case on me.

On the Mullaperiayar dam issue, she said there was no justitication for Kerala government plan to construct a new dam to replace the century-old Mullaperiayr reservoir.

Jayalalithaa said the new dam would only result in depriving water to five distrits of Tamil Nadu affecting even the food security of the country.

She said the proposed new dam was only 400 meters downstrem of the existing structure and so, the contnetion of earth quake would not hold.

Jayallalithaa said the only thing that would happen with the new dam was the cancellation of the 999 years lease agreement entered into between two states in 1886.

Yesterday in a statment she had appealed to the Kerala government to reconsider the proposed construction of a new dam to replace the century-old Mullaperiyar reservoir saying it would affect five fertile districts of Tamil Nadu.
